My natural hair is VERY thick and coarse. If you apply this relaxer and make sure you go back and SMOOTH it afterward, I can't imagine that your hair would revert. I just did my touch up this past weekend and I had A LOT of thick, new growth. My hair is so straight and manageable, it's amazing!

If your having a hard time with your hair taking the relaxer if would suggestgoing to a professional to get your hair straight and after I would recommend this relaxer. I have thick. Hair and this relaxer works well with straightening my hair. I would recommend watching YouTube videos to see what pl with simular hair texture to yours do or recommend

With good products my daughter's hair stays smooth and straight. It's also makes chicken more relaxed when she leaves it down and natural.

I've found that it is too thick to use alone, it makes my scalp itchy! The way I use it is to mix one tablespoon to 1/4 cup of conditioner and use as a pre-poo or co-wash, let it sit on my hair for 45 minutes, then rinse out. Also, it really does make your hair grow. I had a balding area from damage from years of relaxer, so I also mix a little (maybe a few teaspoons) with jojoba oil (1 tablespoon) and a few drops of rosemary oil, massaged into the thinning areas of my scalp. No need to rinse out as the other oils cut the thick, stickiness of the castor oil. Respond back and let me know what other products you've tried.

This is an all natural product that can be used on relaxed hair. It will rejuvenate dead hair follicles and basically bring your hair to its most healthy & soft condition. A little goes a long way so a dime sized drop worked for my hair. I use it for my edges & any area where a tight ponytails or braids have done damage. As far as a timeline your hairs grows at the same rate but it will be thicker with time id say give it around a month to see the results of new hair growth.

Definitely. I have not had a relaxer since February. It straightens my hair just fine.

Hello, the product is amazing and I had another treatment done three months after the first application and considering that I normally use to relax my hair and did not need too, even better.The first day you have it done the hair seems heavy and somehow sticky but will be gone once you rinse out the following day.Take care.

I only use it when I'm detangling in the shower and my hair is wet and completely saturated with conditioner to make it slippery. My hair is super long (waist length), and kinky/curly (it shrinks up to my shoulders when dry). It's very gentle and fast for me. My mom uses it on her straight relaxed hair when it's dry.

Yes! I love this relaxer and use it to straighten my 4a type hair. I am a black woman, and I have used this relaxer for almost 2 years now. I feel that, when used properly, it straightens my hair without weakening it too much. I use the MILD and leave it on for 18-20 min. Works great!

You definitely MUST use the Reconstructor after relaxing, but it can also be used in between relaxing as a good conditioner. I use it after relaxing and when I wash my hair.

If you are using black castor oil or this product it does not work well on relaxed hair, because it contains salt (black castor oil). Black castor oil is great on natural hair.

I don't see why not for a relaxer. It may not do anything as its formulated for natural hair. As far as color treated hair, I don't know. I would play it safe and say don't use anything that does not specifically say on it 'safe for color treated hair'.

No, it's a relaxer and your going to end up over processing your hair. This going to cause breakage. Try using a Brazilian blowout over it to strengthen your hair and loosen your curl.

The product does what it says if you use it correctly. I'd recommend having someone who is used to dealing with perms and relaxers do it for you though. Its tempting to leave it on longer than you should, but don't! That's how your hair gets fried! Also you will want to start using a weekly deep conditioner after this and expect to have to trim the ends after the treatment since split ends will be more noticeable.

I haven't been using it long enough to have anything grow but, from everything I have read about the product you have to keep on using it or the new growth will go away. I plan to keep on using it anyway because even if my hair is not thicker, it helps the texture which normally is fine and limp.

If you hair is burning and dry! They probably used relaxer on your hair not keratin ! You should wait couples months in order to try this product !!

I put a dime (depends on the length of your hair, I have long hair) of the oil/cream on my palm and massage my head and hair with it before washing my hair. I brush my hair for a couple of minutes and then wash thoroughly. It has soften my curls noticably

I used it and had color in my hair. I have now returned to my natural color. I ordered another batch and am now using it again. Unfortunately I have just learned my hair loss may be due to medication I'm taking. Nonetheless I don't see further loss so I'm taking my chances.

My hair is fine and more wavy than kinky. I use the Index 1. It is comparable to a mild/regular relaxer from other brands. If you would normally use a regular/super relaxer and have thicker hair, I would go for the Index 2.
